How to Lower Ball Flight With Irons (Golf Swing)

If you are looking to learn how to swing a golf club to hit lower golf shots, hit golf shots into the wind, or learn how to hit a golf stinger, use these simple golf swing tips to help you lower the trajectory on your golf ball.

Golf stingers are becoming more popular, as golfers like to see that low flighted golf shot pierce down the fairway. So how do you hit a low trajectory golf shot? Here are 3 simple golf tips and one golf drill to help you bring that ball flight down and navigate this golf shot:

- golf swing speed: generally speaking, a faster swing creates more height
- golf setup: by moving the ball back in your golf stance and keeping your hands slightly forward, you can reduce loft and bring down the ball flight
- golf swing: a shorter golf swing with an abbreviated finish can help you lower trajectory as well

- golf swing drill: this elbow squeeze drill from impact position to finish position can help you get the right feel for hitting these low flighted stingers

What about driver? Same setup to hit drives lower?

I have used your " align right, club face square to target " tip on numerous occasions to great effect. I can use it with all my clubs and move the ball back and forth for trajectory.
Do you ever just keep the club face low after impact to keep the trajectory low? Like a punch shot?

do you ever focus on the angle of your shoulders to flight it down?

you kept saying move your ball 1 roll back but you should adjust your stance forward 1 ball since you cannot move your ball on the course

great content and nicely explained, could I ask though if you are looking to hit a certain yardage and are slowing the swing speed and lowering the trajectory do you need to club up or does the lower shot have more roll and still hit the number?
